Man you can say that again. The government out here is getting out of control. I kind of wish San Francisco would brake off at the fault line CA would be a different place to live. There polititians are a part of the problem. As is Boxter but enough about that. I love AZ Shawna and I will most likely retire there. Maybe I will buy a vacation home there. The best part about Az and I know Dino can relate is no tax on private party vehicles.

Yep, this state has been PC'ed to death. I got an idea lets all open a custom truck shop and offer a free dental exam with every truck build... Might even get their dental insurance to cover part of their rust removal.....

Re: I dont no what I am building haha

Seems a lot of states suffer from black hole politics where everything it structured to suit and benefit the largest city. I first realized this when I was posted to upstate NY, and discovered that some of their more retarded laws are because of New York City.
I can only guess that CA is suffering from the mistakes and greed of LA and San Fran.

Be careful, the Politically Correcticons are among us....we are slowly being terraformed into an atmosphere that can no longer sustain common sense or free speech forms of life.....

But enough of the waxing philosophical, give us more pics.... your fans demand it!

Re: I dont no what I am building haha

For what it is worth, my wife is a big fan of your work.
She was really digging the DiBella build, and really loved the color of blue you did the engine and frame parts in!

Time for me to get off this time sucking internet and get the garage warmed up.... I gots stuff to do!!

Yeah, last weekend I posted a pic of my snow encrusted thermometer outside the kitchen window, it was showing -40*

That is about 50 degrees past cold enough for me.

Re: I dont no what I am building haha

Nice action shots!

Before you fully weld the lower bag mount, make sure the axle will be able to bottom out in the notch. The collapsed height of the F9000 bag is 4.25"... looks like that lower bag mount is a couple inches too tall to let it bottom out in the notch.

Re: I dont no what I am building haha

Hey man if you install your panhard bar mount on the driver side of the rear end you won't have to modify it like I did mine. Mine had to be trimmed to clear the bag mount on the pass side. But flipping it to the driver puts the top part of the mount facing down not up. Make sense?

Looks good man!!
